The phylogenomics of protein structures: The backstory.

Biochimie - 1 Dec 2015

Kurland Charles G, Harish Ajith

Abstract excerpt

In this introductory retrospective, evolution as viewed through gene trees is inspected through a lens compounded from its founding operational assumptions. The four assumptions of the gene tree culture that are singularly important to evolutionary interpretations are: a. that protein-coding sequences are molecular fossils; b. that gene trees are equivalent to species trees; c. that the tree of life is assumed to...
